HOW TO GET A TUFTS ID CARD: Tufts official photo ID cards are issued by the University Police. Most students are given ID cards during First-Year Orientation and Matriculation. Transfer students, graduate students, and all others not present during First-Year Orientation should go to the station on their respective campus to be issued a University ID. New Staff and faculty who have been assigned an employee ID number should go to the University Police station on their respective campus during business hours to obtain a University ID.

CARRY YOUR ID CARD: Always carry your Tufts ID. It is required for admission to many university functions, the athletics complex, residence halls, dining centers, and sports events, and to borrow library books, etc. JumboCash and Meal Plans also are accessed through your Tufts ID.

PROTECT YOUR ID CARD: You are responsible for maintaining a valid Tufts ID that is in proper working condition. Do not punch a hole in your ID or hang it from a lanyard or key ring. Altering or misusing a university ID card is a serious offense.

LOST OR STOLEN ID CARDS must be reported immediately by contacting the University Police on your respective campus. Or, you can log into your account at www.jumbocash.net and use the link to report your card as lost or stolen. To contact the Tufts University Police by phone: on the Boston Campus, call 617-636-6610; on the Grafton Campus, call 508-839-5053; and on the Medford Campus, call 617-627-3030. Reporting lost or stolen cards immediately will block unauthorized JumboCash spending and use of the lost or stolen card. If you don’t have your card, someone else might. There may be a replacement fee for lost or stolen cards.
